Nathan Drake and Chloe Frazer are back with their single-player adventures, polished and enhanced to suit the power of PS5. They're still fresh, enjoyable and now feature shorter loading times, three graphic modes and a little bit of DualSense magic.

7 / 10.0 - Labyrinth Legend
Jan 15, 2022

Labyrinth Legend is a very simple ARPG in which you explore a bunch of automatically-generated dungeons, collect equipment, and battle in real time against thousands of enemies. Nothing more, nothing less.

A magical and fun Animal Crossing-like experience for those who love the Disney Universe, with a quite large amount of activities that does not achieve the same level of depth of Nintendo's masterpiece.

6.8 / 10.0 - Cruis'n Blast
Dec 1, 2021

Cruis'n Blast is a fun game in the short term, but lacks the depth of many other arcade racers and doesn't offer a particularly exciting multiplayer, with just a few local 4-players modes.

Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water is still an intruguing survival horror experience with creepy atmosphere and engaging story, but younger audiences may not like its old-style controls and slow pace.

On the PS5 Death Stranding is as beautiful as ever and this Director's Cut gives players a bunch of new and (quite) interesting content, but not enough to make it feel really new and fresh.

6.7 / 10.0 - Tormented Souls
Sep 16, 2021

Tormented Souls tries to capture the magic of the good, old Resident Evil titles. The game delivers a genuine scary atmosphere and decent storytelling, sometimes overwhelmed by poor graphics and some technical issues.

8.4 / 10.0 - The Medium
Sep 7, 2021

The Medium on PS5 is pretty much as good as it was on Xbox Series X, despite some graphic flaws and loading issues. Luckily, the DualSense features manage to fill the gap.

7.9 / 10.0 - Axiom Verge 2
Aug 24, 2021

A remarkable sequel to one of the best Metroidvania ever made. Despite some minor flaws, Axiom Verge 2 represents a new building block in the fascinating and growing universe crafted by Thomas Happ. Can't wait for the next chapter.

One of the most intriguing action-platform of the year. Greak: Memories of Azur is artistically gorgeous and its gameplay is simple but engaging.

Skyward Sword is still not one of the best Zelda games out there, even after improvements added to this new Switch port, but it deserves to be played thanks to a great cast of characters, a good narrative and some interesting gameplay ideas that Nintendo developed further in Breath of the Wild.

Village is an intense Resident Evil experience, with a great cast of heroes and villains. While it does not lack great moments, its story also feels a little jumbled and non-cohesive, and some gameplay elements are not perfectly focused.

Nier Replicant Ver. 1.22474487139 is not a remake but neither a simple remastered. It's an enhanced version that fixes some of the original game's issues and delivers a bunch of new content, but does nothing to refresh its dated approach to world and quest design.

SaGa Frontier Remastered is a 25 years old role-playing game that was never released in Europe. While this remastered doesn't do much in terms of graphics, it adds a fair amount of content that will certainly make it intriguing for returning players. Novices, on the other hand, might have a harder time adapting to some of its more dated mechanics.

Capcom Arcade Stadium provides a generous bunch of golden-age arcade titles (with a little too much Street-Fighterism), paired with a vast assortment of options and gorgeous presentation.
